As stated by the message, you can't open a database in plocal while
another process (the server) is working on it.
Only one process a time could handle the db: it locks the db.
For the same reason you can't open TWO times a db in plocal.

You should use the uname and password for the db, not the uname and
password for the server.
Usually, without taking care about security, they are admin/admin.

Same as above: wrong credentials.

If you find the docs incomplete about credentials/security and or
backup procedures, please point me to the page and I will take care of
improve it
